Happy Saturday, folks! We’re so happy to hear from each of our customers and know how you’re enjoying your new axe. Thank you so much for writing!

We were honored to hear from Tim M. this week…

“Mr. Ike, Today I decided it was time to submit a testimonial for the Bush Axe you built for me after a year of use. Everyone writes that you send us a work of art. They are not lying, this is a very functional work of art. The craftsmanship is beyond any expectations I had. The edge was razor sharp out of the box. I have now used this tool for a year and what a pleasure it is to use. It lives in my truck so I am never without it. The heat treat for edge retention is perfect. The ceramic puck and your instructions for edge maintenance work great. It has been on every camping and hunting trip for my seasons here in the Pacific Northwest. I was almost disappointed at how well it held the razor edge because I wanted to use the sharpening puck I purchased with the axe. The coffee cup is in my hand almost every morning. I have enjoyed it so much that when I hit your page to write this I placed an order for another axe. Now I am looking forward to adding a Chipper for backpacking trips next year.”

Thank you so much for your business and support! Have a great week out there…
